I used to play beyblade seriously back in 2004-2005. I attended the world championships in New York. It was a great time.

Then when it died in America, I stopped.

Just recently I was going through Walmarts clearance section, and what do I see?

Beyblade! Every single booster (Valkyrie, Spryzen, Kerbeus, Wyvron, Deathscissor, and Roktavor all on clearance for 2$ each!

I figured they were years old and that they were unsold. But I did my research and it turns out they just launched in 2016!

I picked up all 6 and now I do not have a stadium or launchers. They were all sold out of the supergrip launcher.

I want to meet some fellow New York bladers and get competitive again.I recall back in the plastic generation, zombies and survivor types were overly dominant and attack types were awful due mostly to hasbros stadiums having pockets and not exit holes.

What I have:

6 boosters (according to research, Defense tip, survive tip, heavy disc, Valkryie Attack ring, wyvron attack ring, and Deathscissor attack ring are viable competitively.

I ordered Roktavor R2 and a xcalius pack for the two tips since they are best in their respective class.

I am seeking a launcher. I want to get a takara launcher. The Hasbro super grip ones look very tiny and cheap. Please recommend me one to import.

I may also be seeking a Takara stadium similar to the Green Tornado of the plastic generation or HMS Black tornado. Once again, hasbro brought back pockets.

I'm excited to play in tournaments and meet others.

Question about tournaments: How do they work? The icons under people's avatars; what do they represent? What is a blader passport?

Can I buy the red version of that loose, or do I have to buy the Xcalibur pack? Xcalibur looks awesome and for 20$~ it looks like a good value but is it a better beyblade than original xcalius? Or is Xcalibur just a pretty beyblade to look at?

The best launcher would probably be the Long Winder + Light Launcher. (Best for money)
The cheapest stadium would probably be the Burst Standard Type. Tournaments are usually in a Swiss format, Check out the discuss WBO forums for an idea on how they work. The icons are Bits, basically, you get them for doing things around the site, or when you get a Bit Booster as part of a giveaway or contest. Glad to have you back!

I used to lurk around here. Were you by any chance blue suzaku?

How does this launcher http://www.ebay.com/itm/Beyblade-Burst-Parts-B-39-Bey-Launcher-White-Takara-Tomy-Authentic-New/222384735512?_trksid=p2385738.c100677.m4649&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908110712%26meid%3D3a25654fa78f4ae9af53e1e6bec9a254%26pid%3D100677%26rk%3D10%26rkt%3D28%26sd%3D112069064427

Stack versus the one you suggested?
https://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-String-Launcher-or-Long-Winder-or-Sword-Launcher
TLDR: sword>long winder>string
I do like the string launcher. But is it more prone to breakage? string launcher has had breakages issues in the past but im pretty sure they have been fixed


And wow is that stadium expensive!
yeah but its well worth it if you are trying to get into burst seriously

Could you post some spin times comparing some launchers?

It is physically impossible for Hasbro's launcher to be as good or better than Takara Tomy's.
